I think maybe I could just say that one shouldn’t let their challenges, obstacles, and diagnosis define who they are or who they can be. It’s what a person does when faced with these problems and in the choices they make that is important. It’s never to late to take whatever steps they feel are necessary to help themselves get through the rough times. As long as you don’t give up.

Yeah wise words. I am not my disorder and I’m a lot more things besides. It does not define me…I define me.
I look at a lot of people and I’m not saying schizophrenia is in anyways easy but gawd. There’s so many other things out there I’m glad I don’t have! It could be a lot worse in my book and I’ve lived through some seriously scary things.
I agree totally. Don’t give up and keep trying!

Noise, I’m sorry if i sounded like a know-it-all or someone who refused to acknowledge the choices you make as valid or couldn’t understand your decision to not take meds. It seems to me you are doing your best not to let your problems take over. At times, you have some cool insights and a good sense of humor. I hope you can successfully address your concerns and get though all of it. Just your comment alone gives me a sense of confidence that you will be okay. And that’s the reason why I love this forum, its all about all of us helping each other in times of need. Love ya @Noise.

Very nice thread @eighteyedspy23.
I agree. I always say use whatever you can in your “arsenal” to get better.
Be it praying, yoga, meditation, therapy, CBT etc. One must be kind of pragmatic to recover.
Take care, oh and thank you for helping me out last night.

Your word aren’t weird, I’m just super self-conscious about my posts. You’re not causing any trouble. No need to ask for forgiveness, you’ve done absolutely nothing wrong. I am sz too, for a while I was diagnosed with sza. I think everyone here can relate in some way with your struggles. I appreciate your posts and wish you the best. I think its safe to say that you are loved just for for being you.
